If you’re a Nervous Nellie whose mantra today is “but South Carolina”, consider this:
Scoring Offense (ppg)
- South Carolina: 24.2 (99th)
- Georgia Tech: 17.5 (122nd)
Scoring Defense (ppg)
- South Carolina: 25.0 (50th)
- Georgia Tech: 30.6 (87th)
Yards per play (offense)
- South Carolina: 5.30 (96th)
- Georgia Tech: 5.00 (112th)
Yards per play (defense)
- South Carolina: 5.44 (53rd)
- Georgia Tech: 5.73 (72nd)
You tell me — is going +4 in turnover margin today gonna do it for the Jackets?
It feels like a Manball kind of day. Let’s just hope nobody else wearing red and black gets hurt.
Have at it in the comments, peeps.
“Manball” indeed…..but they better work on their passing game also (confidence, timing and etc.).

The most interesting question for this game is whether Kirby uses it to work on the offense, or will he go with full manball mode. I’m hoping for the former but wouldn’t bet on it!

Smart is a football coach with a football coach’s mentality. He isn’t assuming a win and instead he is going to plan on doing what his team does to win. That said, if he gets a comfortable lead I can see him using the second half to work on a few things.

Before today, I thought UGA had a chance against LSU. I no longer believe that. If you look at what everybody has done against Tech minus the three garbage teams, Tech surrenders around 250 a game at high completion rate and yards per attempt in the 7 yard range. I don’t want to hear excuses about the lack of talent or experience. Robertson is a 5 star and this is his 3rd year. ALLLLL the RB are effective in passing game. Tight Ends are not world beaters but they are good. I can only think it’s an OC thing.

Sucks about Pickens but I don’t blame him. Swilling was hitting him in the facemask before he ever threw a punch. Pickens could have been smarter and not thrown a real right hook into his helmet, though. Hope his hand is ok. The injuries and getting baited into a fight and ejection against a shit team are why I’m ready to entertain dropping them if they aren’t gonna get better. Can’t avoid injuries but Tech likes to bait.
